    1. Researching KUHN in 1733
    2. Judith McConville
    3. Hello: I am researching my ggggg grandfather and family who came to Philadelphia, arriving 17 August 1733. They came from Germany by way of Rotterdam on the ship Samuel. ABRAHAM KUHN, born abt. 1683 was from Gauangelloch, Baden, Germany. He was 50 yo when he arrived in Philadelphia. His wife EVE ??. was born abt. 1674 in Germany. She was 59 yo when she arrived in Philadelphia. They brought with them 4 children: CATHARINA, born abt. 1709; FRIEDERICH/FREDERICK, born abt. 1711, d. 10 May 1785 in PA; HANS JERG, born abt. 1718 and ANNA CRETE, born abt. 1722. I have been able to track FREDRICK KUHN to Northampton Co and Montgomery Co. His children to York Co. and Allegheny Co. But.....I cannot find ABRAHAM and EVE, nor CATHARINA, HANS or ANNA. Ancestry tells me there is an early Census of 1733, Philadelphia, for ABRAHAM KUHN, but I have not been able to access it. Can someone tell me where I can obtain this Census. I also obtained information that states ABRAHAM and FREDRICH KUHN's arrival, 17 August 1733 they with 91 other passengers went to the courthouse in Philadelphia and took their oath of allegiance (Declaration of Intent?) Should I be looking for this and possibly their Naturalization papers? Any information about this family and/or direction would be greatly appreciated.
